Purple Rebloomer Iris

This is an iris that blooms off and on all year long I picked it yesterday and brought it indoors to photograph, where it's easier to control the light.

 

Lighting stuff: I used three lights (all YN560-III's) that I added one at a time. I used one in a Rogue grid behind the flower at camera left for back lighting, one in a 24 inch soft box, in front at camera left and the third flash at camera right in an identical soft box. The strobes, in manual mode, were triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N.

 

Other plants, flowers, fruit or thingys that I've photographed using strobes can be seen in my Strobe Lit Plant album. In the description for that set, I list resources that I've used to learn how to light with off camera flash. www.flickr.com/photos/9422

 

Other Iris pictures that I've taken can be seen here. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157623861858581/...
